Liked: It has a convenient location. Very near the train station and a lot of restaurants.

Disliked: It reminds me of Korean motels, the only difference is that it was transformed into a hostel. I would rate it as average.

12 October 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Very good value for Busan. Nice common areas (kitchen + living room with 3 computers, sofas and big TV). Jin was helpful and friendly.

Disliked: Quite run-down, could do with a refurb - air-con very noisy and ineffective, mosquito blinds had holes in them so we were constantly bitten at night (though non-malarial so annoying rather than dangerous), no events organised in the hostel. Good location, but a bit of traffic-dodging trek from the metro station.

Liked: The owner of the hostel was extremely helpful and friendly. Internet was free and breakfast was free but simple. The location was pretty good and quite easy to locate.

Disliked: The dorm room was quite small, so be prepared for that. It's good if you are just wanting a simple, cheap place to sleep.

Liked: 1. the accepter was kind. house was very clear. 2. there's 24hs Family mart nearby. 3. unknown friends from different countries was able to drink and chat together at the roof. wonderful~

Disliked: 1. a little far from subway station,15-20mins walk. Or maybe it was too hot and we were in a hurry. 2 the guide written couldn't lead me to the hostel at all, so I had to call twice. I suggest a map on the site.
